To amend title 49, United States Code, to include a public airport in use by an air reserve station as a primary airport.

Bill 118 hr 2558, also known as the "Public Airport Access Act," aims to amend title 49 of the United States Code to designate a public airport that is utilized by an air reserve station as a primary airport. This bill seeks to recognize the importance of public airports that also serve as air reserve stations in supporting national defense and emergency response efforts.

The primary goal of this legislation is to ensure that public airports with air reserve stations receive the necessary recognition and support to effectively carry out their dual roles. By designating these airports as primary airports, they will have access to additional resources and funding to maintain and improve their infrastructure, security measures, and operational capabilities.

Supporters of the bill argue that public airports with air reserve stations play a crucial role in national security and disaster response efforts, and therefore should be given the same level of priority and support as other primary airports. By including these airports in the designation of primary airports, they will be better equipped to fulfill their important missions and serve the needs of both civilian and military aviation. Overall, Bill 118 hr 2558 seeks to enhance the recognition and support for public airports with air reserve stations, ensuring that they have the necessary resources to effectively carry out their dual roles in serving both civilian and military aviation needs.
